Added by the school: the original Westminster vision
The school copies the LCS curriculum in full and adds its own courses on the 1647 text of the Westminster Standards, read with the Scottish and continental Reformed tradition. These credits are added to the LCS credits; no LCS course is replaced. A layer course already completed in an earlier program is not repeated: its credits carry forward.
